We challenge you to survive a long trip in the back seats of a Tesla Model Y in a 7-seat configuration.
The Tesla Model Y is a fully electric compact family SUV. The reference of the American manufacturer now has new competitors on the market, with the arrival of the Volkswagen ID.4, Skoda Enyaq, Nissan Ariya and other Ford Mustang Mach-E.

But in this new category of family electric SUVs, the Tesla has the advantage of being able to accommodate up to seven passengers: as an option, it is indeed possible to add two seats in the trunk. You can imagine that these two additional seats do not offer the same space as those in the back seat. But are they at least liveable for an adult?
No
Here’s the answer: if you’re over three feet tall, no. It will be absolutely impossible for you to take a seat in the third row of seats in conditions of comfort allowing you to stay there for more than a few minutes. In short, these two places will be limited to small children, and if possible on short trips.
